SENATOR J> SAM ERVIN jmJm *ySAYS * Washington This nation is on the eve of one of the great est blessings of democracy. It is the selection by secret ballot of its public officials. This, of course, is not a parti *san appeal for votes. It is sim ply a hope that qualified voters will not shirk their responsi bility on November 8. No Easy Performance Cam paigning for office is one of the most. strenuous, yet unreward ing, of all pursuits. One comes face-to-face with the greatest friendships, loyalties, and, Un fortunately, some of the less de sirable characteristics of human kind.

Many will not, for one reason or another, feel that they can give democ racy a hand by taking this time. Moreover, there are qualified voters who habitually find criti cism of the performance of their officials but who never assume the civic responsibility which is so vital to our freedom. What Is The Answer?—.What ever it is that makes citizenship | responsibility take a back seat 1 on election day for so many, it is a bad thing. There seems to be no answer to the dilemma of a republic whose citizenry will not discharge its responsibility. In any event, this is to urge all North Carolinians who are qualified to vote to respect this great blessing of democracy.
